How does an iPhone know which mp3s are podcasts? Yes, iTunes 'knows' they are podcasts because of how it got them. This is a SERIOUSLY annoying mis-feature that iTunes has had for years. There are lots of little things that iTunes will or won't do with something that it 'knows' is a podcast (like auto-load it onto a shuffle). Good luck getting around this by any means other than using iTunes. Unfortunately, you've run into one of the many areas where Apple's approach to things makes it hard on the end user who doesn't fit the expectations Apple has. |

converting mp3 to 3gp At the very least, choose a higher bitrate on the target format than the mp3 was. That will help minimize the overall quality loss from transcoding. |

How to measure performance gain with defragmentation? I suppose you could do a series of files, each of them fragmented, scattered across the disk. That way, you'd be reading more of the disk surface over the course of the test, and you'd likely see more improvement when you defragmented the drive. |

How can I explain why DRM cannot work? Frankly it's pretty much impossible even if all you have a hardware players. Since you can't control what the end users do with them, you can only make it more difficult to extract the key, never impossible. |

How do I replace the stupid Windows XP dog assistance search with the classic Windows 2000 search? To revert to old behavior you can either set the value to 'yes', or you can remove it entirely. |

Is there an easy way to split mp3 files? I'm very fond of mp3DirectCut. All it does is split up mp3 files, and it's pretty good at it. |

How safe is building a computer yourself? Yea, pretty much any of them will do as a basis. The important thing is to have a consistent set of things to start with, then tweak till it meets your needs. Otherwise you just have to wade through every possible part at your vendor of choice, and that just takes too long. |
